Hamburg becomes hycity “Hamburg is the gateway to tomorrow’s energy world – Hamburg is hycity.” For this vision Hamburg has taken the initiative and bundled the competence available in the city. Individuals, companies and institutions who want to get things moving in the field of fuel cell and hydrogen technology are now joining forces. For sustainable energy supplies. For effective climate protection. For a city with top technology.

Top technology in inland shipping Motivation An alliance of 10 project partners with Hamburg as lead manager received financial assis- tance from the EU for the development of a totally fuel cell powered vessel designed to carry 100 passengers. The first fuel cell passenger vessel of this size will be supplied by a hydrogen refuelling station also developed as part of the project.
In summer 2008 the vessel will start passenger-carrying operations on Hamburg’s Alster Lake and in the historic Speicherstadt warehouse district: safe, reliable and highly efficient, with low noise and vibration levels, without fuels dangerous to water and without the usual air pollutants. Among other things, the project will also create and secure jobs with a future.

Efficient energy supply through environmentally friendly fuel cell technology Motivation “Operation controlled by electricity, but limited by heat” – That’s the way BAXI INNOTECH’s fuel cell micro CHP unit works to provide economical and environmentally friendly energy supplies for detached and semi-detached houses in the future. With 1.5 kW electrical and 3 kW thermal output, an integrated 15 kW auxiliary boiler and an added heat storage unit, the fuel cell micro CHP unit ensures an optimum energy supply for the house. The heart of the unit is a low-temperature PEM fuel cell. This permits modulating operation, as and when requi- red, while short startup times guarantee long lifetimes. Growing energy needs, rapidly escalating changes in our climate, the high efficiency requirements and CO2 emission level reductions are sufficient motivation for us to put all our energy into pressing ahead with the development of the fuel cell heating system to become a maketable product.

The use of hydrogen and fuel cell technology is a promising alternative way of cate- ring for these requirements.

Promoter of a reproductive energy source for the future Motivation Since 1910 Linde, as the world’s biggest constructor of hydrogen systems and a leading industrial gas company in Europe, has been supplying hydrogen for a wide variety of applications, e.g. in the chemical, petrochemical or food industries. With the development of new hydrogen technologies – including innovative tank and supply systems – Linde is also a strong partner for promoting the use of hydrogen as an energy source for the future. We are fully committed to the development of a new reproductive energy source. For several years now, STILL GmbH has been working on H2 technology. On the basis of experience gained with the operation of a fuel cell powered fork-lift truck at Munich airport, STILL is now engaged in another project at HHLA Rhenus Logistics GmbH in the port of Hamburg.

Lower exhaust emissions – so forests can breathe again Motivation Every year, the federal government’s Forest Damage Report provides fresh confirmation: our forests are far from healthy. One of the main reasons for damage to forests is exhaust gases from road traffic. Systematic further development of clean hydrogen technology and its early market launch in road vehicles will make a decisive contribution to the recovery of German forests. That is why SDW as a forest conservation association supports the development of the fuel cell.

Forging viable links between ecology and economics Motivation Vattenfall combines its activities in the field of fuel cell and hydrogen technology with new econo- mic concepts such as rights trading systems or promotion mechanisms, and integrates them in existing supply structures. We pay attention to environmental impact, cost-effectiveness and supply security – indispensable criteria for sustainable energy supplies. In view of their high efficiency and low emission levels, fuel cells are suitable for distributed energy supplies. Hydrogen is an emission-free energy source that can be produced by means of offshore wind energy or CO2-free coal-fired power stations. Like electri- city, it is a secondary energy source that can open up the transport sector as an energy market for Vattenfall.
